Having problems with your VAX Appliances 2000 Canister Vacuum ?

How do you use vax 2000 to shampoo carpets. do not have a manual

Answers :

Set up is complicated unless you are patient.\015\012\015\012Remove the paper dust bag from the bottom of the canister and then filter ring. Then put in the recovery bucket of which 4 litres of warm water should be added and a capful of floor cleaning solution.\015\012\015\012Then remove the pump wire on top of the Vax motor where the blue filter circle is (keep the filter in, do not remove it!).\015\012\015\012If the 2000 has a separate pump notch on the rim of the Vax motor head on the outside then you should plug the black cord in that has a washer screw type metal connector. Push, twist and lock in. Then the black cord which eventually leads to a clear pipe with the older clip on wash handle that has to be clipped to the main hose handle has to have the black and see through cord clipped to the main hose and eventually down the extension pipes until you get to the floor head. If you have the older style T shaped floor head the cord should slip into the floor head easily. Then either squeezing the trigger to release the cleaning solution in, switch the Vax on and hit the secondary pump button. This will pump the cleaning solution and water into the carpet. To stop the pump you can either lock the wash trigger to stop the liquid or squeeze the trigger to make sure no other liquid comes out. Generally you can see the foamy carpet solution flowing through the see through rubber hose and eventuallly through the floor head. \015\012\015\012To **** up the rest of the carpet solution, stop the pump button and the Vax can be used to **** out all the dirty solution/water in the carpet. Its a big and tedious task generally!\015\012\015\012See an alternative manual for the Vax 1000 which is an older model but similar to the 2000. It is free and in pdf downloadable form:\015\012\015\012http://www.vax.co.uk/downloads/pdf/VaxGuideNo8a.pdf

For the first time, I tried using my Kirby Sentria shampoo attachment. I've lost the manual but found instructions online for making the swap from regular vac to shampoo-er and got it all assembled. The foam laid down just fine, however, when I run the vac back over the foam to pick it up, there is not a stitch of water showing up in the tray. First I thought maybe it was bc I hadn't put that much of the foam/water onto the carpet, but 12 hours later, the carpet is still wet in spots. Clearly

I need a manual for a carpet cleaner, model # B-25 serrial # 905206. It is used to shampoo carpet. Thanks Jan

I do not have a problem, other than i cannot find my manual for the bissel prodry and I want to shampoo my carpet. i need instructions on how to use it.

Shampoo attachments... I have all these attachments for my vacuum but never needed to use them. It was my mom's vacuum and she can't find the manual so I'm in a rut and my rug looks like a herd of elephants have been all over it (the rug is also my mom's) so it really needs washed. Can someone please walk me through the necessary steps to get this thing turned into a super duper carpet cleaner? Thanks.

I HAVE LOST MY ELECTROLUX EPIC FLOOR PRO SHAMPOOER W/ KNAPLIFTERS USER MANUAL. WHEN DO YOU USE THE KNAPLIFTERS? AFTER YOU SHAMPOO AND THE CARPET DRIES?

We have a Bissell Proheat Cleanshot 2X Model 9500 Steam carpet cleaner. The first time we used it things were great. The second time we used it it left tracks in the carpet. We have no idea what caused this. We tried using the machine on an entirely different carpet and it did the same thing. After vacuuming the carpet about 10 or 12 times, the tracks are still embedded in the carpet - HELP!!!! We're read and reread the manual and contacted customer service and received no help.

First things first. It's only the second time you have used the machine, so it must be fairly new. If you have a receipt and the unit is less than a year old you should take it to an authorized Bissell repair center and have the machine inspected und ...

My Bissell Proheat Turbo puts out too much water and cleaner and won't **** it back up like it should. Also when I use the attachments dirty water runs out the the hose when I am done. It's used a lot, I shampoo all the carpets about 2 times a month and I shampoo the funiture 1 time a month. I bought it about 3 months ago.

My carpet cleaner (bissell proheat plus) is not steaming, dispensing cleaner. Seems like there's a little thingy that should be spinning or turning..... When I work a small area of carpet, it just leaves behind dry blobs of carpet gunk like pet hair. I had to use a carpet sweeper to clean up. FYI - I filled the cleaning fluid container and after trying to clean the carpet, it did empty out but the carpet isn't wet. Any tips? The manual doesn't help.

It's been awhile since I have used my shampoo system on my Ultimate G series Kirby. Well, as instructed I took it apart and cleaned it. Now I can?t figure out where to put the ?screen cap? and ?sponge filter?. I have my manual in front of me and the only place it shows the filter and sponge (page 35 in the manual) is when it?s been taken apart to clean. It doesn?t show where to put it back. I don?t know what I would do without all the pictures in the Kirby manual. HELP! Thanx. Visual Kirby Vacuu

How do i use my carpet shampoo system?

I was cleaning my carpet using my hoover steamvac ls. I had already changed the water 3 times. The last time, the water ran out and I kept running it for a couple of minutes trying to **** up some of the water off the carpet when it just shut down. I check the breaker and the outlet and they were OK. Checked my manual for troubleshooting; couldn't find an answer there. Do you think I burned the motor up (I didn't smell anything) or will I have to send it in for repair? When I clicked on your web

We lost our instructions to the Kirby Shampoo attachement and how to attach it to the main unit, the belt and how to use it. We need complete instructions and explanations on how to use this as we have tried and the belt does not attach to the main unit, the brush does not turn and the hops along the carpet and no water, etc. returns to the tray.
Please help us with as simple and complete instructions as possible.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH,

First, you'll need to fill the tank with water (warm or cold). There are three fill lines on the side of the tank. Fill to the desired line and add one shampooer tank lid full of Kirby shampoo for each line of water. A full tank will require th ...

I need a manual for the bissell pro heat carpet cleaner #7091H. I used it but I can not get it to **** the dirty water out of the carpet. What am I doing wrong?

No spray I have a proheat cleaner. The problem is there isn't any solution when I press the trigger on the handle to use the machine to clean a whole carpet yet if I use the handheld unit it works a treat. I have tried all the remedies in the manual.
